I really love my exercise, I love to do yoga and ballet a couple of times a week, but I also like to get lots of cardio exercise into my regime, such as running and cycling. As we aren’t always graced with sunshine in the UK I do sometimes have to forgo a run outside, and I really don’t like to waste money on a gym membership, so I decided to buy this Pro Fitness Magnetic Space Saver Exercise Bike. For just over the cost of a months worth of membership at my local gym, I was able to bring the gym to my own home.

The bike is a convenient size and it also folds over very neatly, so when I’ve got guests coming over I can quickly tidy it into the cupboard, which is very handy. The bike has a basic computer between the handle bars which measures things such as speed, distance, calorie burn and time. The handle bars do have two little pulse points to measure your heart rate, but I’m not sure how accurate these are, as they sometimes measure very low when my heartbeat is going very fast!

My biggest negative with this bike is that the seat is very uncomfortable if you’re on it for more than 30 minutes, but I think most bikes suffer with that problem. For the price it is well worth a purchase.
